    In this episode, I have the chance to talk to Chelsea, about being in a relationship with someone who is not out of the closet. More importantly, Chelsea opens up about the importance of feeling socially connected, of respecting yourself and who you are, of placing boundaries in a relationship, and of the cultural differences that coming out can have for various people. An intimate and touching episode, with a very generous guest. - - - - - - - Follow me on Instagram @mentalhealthmuch
